Beautiful artwork, terrible calendar

Date:January 30, 2015

Cons: useless as a calendar

The artwork is beautiful, but it's useless as a wall calendar because you can't see the numbers from more then 1 foot away. Who decides to put white numbers on a gray background and then expects anyone to be able to see them.

New Artwork for an Old Favorite

Date:August 15, 2014

Pros: Makes A Great Gift, High Quality Materials

Having had the official J. R. R. Tolkien calendar for many years, I was pleased to see the new artwork. Most of the time, whoever the artist, the pictures on the calendar have been beautiful. Some artists have contributed artwork for a number of years, and so I was familiar with their style. I was not familiar with artist Jemima Catlin, but I am enjoying her interpretations of the story of "The Hobbit."

Love the artwork. One of the nicest looking calendars I've had. Nice touch adding Tolkien's birthday as a holiday.

Have to get a Tolkien calendar every year for my husband. That started when we were dating more than 30 years ago. Am thrilled to be able to find it each year at calendars.com.

Good but not great.

Pros: High Quality Materials

I collect Tolkien calendars. I have every single one for all years published. When you've seen them all some of the art work is very good and some is ok.

Tolkien The Hobbit

Already have all or nearly all these pictures from previous Tolkien calendars. Nothing here is original.

Excellent Drawings

Date:September 25, 2012

Pros: Makes A Great Gift, High Quality Materials

Got this calendar for my husband. He is very pleased with the quality of the drawings. For the past several years, he hadn't purchased this calendar due to the poor quality artwork. He is well pleased with the quality of the artwork and glad to have a Tolkien calendar for 2013.
